Since meeting Aela, Mazikeen’s mind has drifted more often to Reave and Nerine than it had before. There had been a time during the long stretch of night where she had considered finding him again - after she had completed her quest - and then she had forgotten to pay attention to and finally had stopped caring about anything outside of Hyaline.
Now, though, she finds that she wakes up with the autumn sun and finds herself a little excited about having something to do, even if it is only a visit. So she makes the short trip to Nerine on wings of iridescent blue feathers - a recent favourite. She doesn’t enter through Taiga but rather lands on the cliffs closest to her home, folding the wings at her side as she takes her first look at the land that has been her close neighbour for most of her life.
There is too much sky here, everything is too out in the open, though this does assist her plan for the day. She is not here to sneak around, the whole point is to be found. Preferably by Reave, and if not then by someone who can point her in the right direction.
It will only take a quick look at her to see that she had changed - the curving, glowing horns on her head, the scars that mark her face and heart, the wings at her side hiding the rest. Even the shade of her eyes is a deeper red-orange than it had been when she had met him (though they had stood there in the forest obscured by shadows). And these are only the surface-level changes.
This is not the same Mazikeen he had met that day and she finds that she is curious to discover how the years have changed that boy who had told her the monsters would wipe them all out. Did he still have that practical-yet-depressing view on things?
Never one for standing still, Mazikeen moves but keeps close to the cliffs - thinking she stands out enough that she'll be noticed before too long without needing to call out as her eyes continuously scan the moors for movement.
